We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

Introduction
Pertussis Toxins are a major virulence factor of Bordetella pertussis which causes whooping cough. The pertussis toxin is involved with colonization of the respiratory tract where it establishes an infection.
Structure
Pertussis Toxin is composed of a hexamer consisting of a catalytic subunit (S1) tightly associated with the pentameric cell-binding component (B-oligomer).
